Saikyou Juzoku Tensei ~Cheat Majutsushi no Slow Life~ Chapter 78

Chapter 78

“Gaston! Gaston! Gaston! Gaston!”

The arena was in a frenzy .

Everyone in the crowd, which must have been in the thousands, was raising their arms and shouting the same name .

It was like a concert of a famous rock band I had seen in a previous life .

“Gaston! Gaston!”

I caught up with the others and shouted, waving my arms up in the air .

Mea, seeing me, raised her arms as well and started cheering for Gaston .

“Gaston! Gaston!”

The blood-boiling excitement fires the nerves in my brain and drives me into a frenzy .

It’s fun . It’s crazy fun .

The auditorium was filled with a definite sense of unity .

Taking advantage of reflecting on Zeshum Ruins, we decided to take a solid, short-handed approach to the forest this time .

There are only affordable magical beasts here, and since there’s no need to use a carriage to move around, the expenses are cheap and helpful .

Since Maiszen and I couldn’t agree on a schedule, Mea and I would be traveling alone .

Apparently, the two former party members had asked him to join them .

I’m sure they broke up without a thought, but the party probably couldn’t make it when the leader left .

Although Maizen said, ‘Oh dear, it can’t be helped’, but he seemed quite happy to accept it .

…… it’s just that the two couples were flirting and huddling together without any consideration for Maizen, but would that make Maizen okay with it?

They didn’t look like a threesome, they looked like two and one completely .

Mea had an enraptured look on her face and insinuated, “A couple that seems to be so close, Mea adores”, but I want you to pay more attention to plus one Maizen than the couple .

The fact that Maizen looks happy is also painful .

That guy, he should definitely get out of there .

It was said that there were survivors of the unicorns that had sprung up in the forest during the magic beast disaster monster panic and that the forest was full of adventurers who wanted to take advantage of the unicorns were p.r.o.ne to trouble…… but it was apparently a hoax spread by adventurers who wanted to monopolize the other hunting grounds .

The main culprit of the hoax had been beaten to a pulp in the back of the adventurer’s support center .

With a face covered in blue bruises from the beating, he said, “Serves you right! I’ve made a fortune while you’re wasting your time”, and then he was attacked even more caustically .

I hope it doesn’t turn into a murder case…… . .

But as usual, how can I say…… . .

This is what I thought when they were in conflict with the investigation team and fighting for the rights to the ruins, but it seems that the adventurers of this city love to fight over unimportant issues .

No, they’re all desperate, though .

The unicorns had already been hunted out .

The adventurers were excited because a peddler in Lomarn bought a large number of unicorn pelts without losing much money from the market .

Peddler…… it wouldn’t be James right .

That guy looked pretty rash . I don’t think he can afford to buy up all the furs of mythical beasts .

I wonder if he’s still in town . I don’t hear anything about it .

“I-It’s time…… for us to take a break and……”

I wiped the sweat off my face and sat down on a nearby rock .

“Eh, not-, not again? N, no! It’s nothing . No, Mea was just starting to get tired of her feet, and was just about to say it! Wow, just in time! Whew! You’re a lifesaver!”

Mea replies to my suggestion .

…… It’s more painful to know that you’re being considered, you know .

I take out the Hyottle, put my mouth on it, and drink down the water inside .

A hyottle is a water bottle made by hollowing out the contents of a gourd-like plant fruit .

It is embalmed and enchanted to prevent it from breaking .

It seems to be the best-selling item in the “Chimera’s Tails” magic store .

By the way, the price was 248G . The owner of the store seems to be living a very lonely life .

“Are you sure you’re alright? U, um, I was thinking of turning around and coming back in carriage…… is it okay? You can take a lot of stuff home with you that way… or so Mea thinks in a way . ”

I appreciate the offer, but I can’t accept it .

It costs a lot of money to hire a carriage .

If we were to use it all the way to such close proximity, we would certainly be in the red .

“…… It’s okay, it’s okay . You have to move your body from time to time, or your body will get slow . ”

“I, I see…… body dulling…… I see……”

Mea looked like she wanted to say something, but she quickly shut up .

“Oh water”

I use magic to get water out and replenish Hyottle’s water .

This is a great way to reduce the weight of your luggage .

Normally, it seems that the most difficult thing for adventurers is to carry water with them .

This time we are heading to a forest, so there may be a river, but in a dungeon, that’s not possible .

Even if there is a sorcerer, he or she is may not be suitable for it depending on the attributes and the type .

I slap the calf of my leg with my hand and lightly rub it .

My muscles were already starting to ache .

I didn’t think that the biggest obstacle to choosing the forest as my hunting ground would come out in this way .

By the time we reach the forest, I’ll probably be unable to move .

When I thought about this, the exchange with Maizen at the ruins went through my mind .

“That’s right! Maizen, take me on your back and go after Ebelheid!”

“E, Ehhh…… A, Ahhh, yeah, okay, but…… . . ”

Oh, that’s right .

There is that way .

“Hey, Mea! You carry…… me……”

“Hmm, what is it, Abel?”

“N, no, it’s nothing . ”

…… . . it’s not good to have a woman carry me on her back, indeed .

It would be better if my legs could somehow hold it .
